@Senaitbitew My dream is a new city being built from scratch. Similar to Abuja, a planned and purposely-built city with excellent road infrastructure.

Addis is heading to be even more crowded, chaotic and suffocating with long hours of traffic gridlock.

The ancient Ethiopian game Genna, is a traditional field hockey game popular in  #Ethiopia, played with a ball & sticks.
The game is associated with Christmas, from which it gets its name.

Annunciation to the shepherds, 18th C. MS.
Merry Christmas! መልካም የገና በዓል!

Denmark, Norway and Sweden have removed restrictions and no covid passports required.

Life is back to normal in Scandinavia.

I really feel like this should be bigger news...🇸🇪🇳🇴🇩🇰

The #Ethiopian Saint Abba Takla Haymanot has a very prominent position in the #Coptic Orthodox Church. The Coptic church celebrates his annual feast and commemorates the Ethiopian saint's departure date/occurs on the 24th day of Mesra according to the Coptic calendar = August 31

[HMML @visitHMML]

Today is the feast of Takla Hāymānot, perhaps the most famous #Ethiopian saint. He is venerated by the Coptic Church and, uniquely, an account of his life was translated from Ge‘ez into Arabic. ABMQ 00403 contains a copy of the rare Arabic text.

I have a question.

Why is mental illness and lack of mental health an appropriate excuse for a mass shooter but not for an athlete to back out of a game or competition?

CDC revised its mask recommendations for vaccinated people

Its causing relief among in some circles, confusion in others and anger in others yet

My take?

A modest change with likely modest effects

A change that is responding to the realities on the ground

#DeltaVariant surging in U.S. New data show Delta much more contagious than previous versions of #COVID19. Unvaccinated people: get vaccinated & mask until you do. Everyone in areas of substantial/high transmission should wear a mask, even if vaccinated.

China’s total dominance of global trade & collapse of the U.S. is illustrated by the graphs below. Now, all countries (except Canada, Mexico & a few others) trade more with China than the U.S. This should be an alarming wake-up call for our leaders in Washington. @TheEconomist

[Kristen Panthagani, MD, PhD @kmpanthagani]

People are looking at the percent of vaccinated hospitalizations and getting alarmed. But by itself, this number can't tell you much about how the vaccines are working, as it's highly dependent on the rate of vaccination in a community. Here's some maths to show what I mean👇🏽

Govt of #Sudan admits NO DROP in water level of #Nile River as #Ethiopia completes 2nd filling of #GERD. All rantings & ravings about danger of filling GERD was #geoplotical. Now Ethiopia prepared to begin operation of 2 turbines to produce electricity for Horn of #Africa #HOA.
